So in my attempt to eat healthier I found this recipe on the internet (no not Pinterest). I still have a need for a cookie now and then, or everyday! I quit buying cookies from the grocery store some time ago. I decided that if I wanted cookies I’d have to make them. I found this cookie recipe and it will blow you away. It’s not sugary, it’s totally healthy, full of protein and actually taste like you took a Spice Cake mix and added chocolate chips & walnuts to it. You MUST try this sometime, you will be presently surprised! I love it when I’m pleasantly surprised . . LOL
1 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup Crisco (I used coconut oil) 2 large eggs 3/4 cup pinto beans, mashed 3/4 cup applesauce 1 teas. baking soda 1 teas. baking powder 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1/2 teas. cinnamon 1/2 teas. ground cloves 1/2 cup chopped nuts (I used walnuts) 1/2 cup chocolate chips or raisins (helllloooo chips!)Cream Crisco, sugar & eggs, add mashed pinto beans & applesauce. Beat till well combined. Add dry ingredients, beat till smooth. Stir in chips & nuts. Batter is a bit gooey. Drop by teaspoonful on greased cookie sheet (I used parchment paper). Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes. Cool & enjoy!!
